Krolo attributed 230 basis points to FX and 90 basis points to U.S. tariffs on the Q2 earnings call, noting that on a currency and tariff-neutral basis, gross margin was actually up 10 basis points year over year.<br \/>Operating margin fell to 26% in Q2 FY2026 from 30% in the same quarter a year earlier, consistent with the gross margin compression pattern.<br \/>Adjusted EBITDA margin of 32% was down 270 basis points YoY, but excluding FX and tariff impacts, the margin would have been up 60 basis points to approximately 35%, per Krolo on the Q2 earnings call.<br \/>Birkenstock guided for adjusted gross margin of 57%\u201357.5% for the full fiscal year, inclusive of a combined 200 basis points of pressure from FX and tariffs, with tariff headwinds expected at approximately 100 basis points in Q3 and 50 basis points in Q4.<br \/>TIKR&#8217;s model sets a price target of \u20ac51.96 on Birkenstock stock, implying approximately 75% upside from the current price of \u20ac30.67 over roughly 4.4 years.<br \/>The mid-case assumes revenue growth of 10.4% CAGR and a net income margin of 16.6%, with EPS growing at a 10.8% CAGR \u2014 assumptions the Q2 result does not obviously invalidate, given that constant-currency momentum held within guidance range.<br \/>The model also embeds annual P\/E compression of 4.4% in the mid-case, meaning the path to \u20ac51.96 depends on earnings growth running fast enough to outpace a multiple that is contracting in the base scenario.<br \/>Q2 sharpens both sides of the risk\/reward: reported EPS looks soft due to transitory noncash charges, but constant-currency fundamentals and reaffirmed full-year guidance keep the core investment case intact.<br \/>With tariff and FX headwinds now quantified and embedded in guidance, Birkenstock stock&#8217;s investment case is broadly unchanged from a quarter ago \u2014 the business is executing at plan, and the discount to the TIKR model target remains as wide as it has been.<br \/>Birkenstock confirmed constant-currency momentum is on track, but FX translation and escalating tariffs continue to obscure the underlying result in reported numbers, and that gap needs to close for the re-rating to materialize.<br \/><strong>What Has to Go Right<\/strong><br \/><strong>What Could Still Go Wrong<\/strong><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/app.tikr.com\/register?ref=tikrblog\"><strong><em>Wall Street&#8217;s best ideas don&#8217;t stay hidden for long.
